In aerospace and defense, “good communication” isn’t a soft skill—it’s a performance requirement. When a simulator program misses the mark, the root cause is often simple: the supplier and customer weren’t aligned on what success  actually looks like. At Simtek, we’ve learned that the best way to deliver high-quality simulated avionics isn’t to start with hardware. It’s to start with understanding the customer’s needs —clearly, completely, and early. “Need” Isn’t Just a Part

Simtek Simulated avionics - Train Like It's Real In training and test environments, accuracy isn’t a luxury—it’s the entire point. Whether you’re preparing pilots for real-world scenarios, validating procedures, or building confidence in complex systems, the simulator has one job: reflect reality so well that the skills transfer cleanly to the aircraft. That’s where high-fidelity simulation  changes the game. When the details are right—behavior, feel, response, timing, and..

Simtek KY-100 M - From Kickoff to Delivery. Great simulated avionics don’t happen by accident—they happen when everyone stays aligned from day one. At Simtek, we treat customer communication as part of the product. The clearer the alignment, the smoother the build, the faster the integration, and the fewer surprises late in the program. That’s why we lean on a structured communication rhythm built around key milestones like: TKO (Technical Kickoff) , PDR (Preliminary Design R
